Answer:

Quilt of a Country" is a commentary written by Pulitzer-prize winning author Anna Quindlen following the tragic events of September 11, 2001.

Th metaphor of a quilt is used in this text to symbolize America's diversity. There is a tension in America, which is that, despite citizens being from such different cultural and ethnic backgrounds, they can come together to build a great nation. The argument is that this resembles a "crazy quilt," which in theory should be mismatched because of the differences between its sections, but in practice comes together beautifully.

musickatia [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Direct

Explanation:

We have three types of messages in the organizational pattern: direct, indirect and semi-indirect.

Direct messages are the most used or the most appropriate organizational pattern. Using these depends on the effect (positive or neutral) that the text we'll be sending has on the reader.

In this case, the message sent involves a positive attitude towards Renalda's situation, so the Direct Approach was the only appropriate organizational pattern.
